...and the dumbass award of the week goes to...
 

Glad I was not out on the river this past weekend - might have run into this drunken idiot.

Dude was apparently driving around the marina mooning people before he ran his boat up into someone's back yard. One stupid decision will live in infamy. Just glad he did not become another story about a fatal accident.

Hold my beer and watch this..

Yes, there are stupid boaters, hope they keep him off the water or out of a vehicle.

I`m impressed how far he made it onto that lawn. Id guess he was going a little faster than 35mph?

Friend of mine who was down there said someone yelled at him to slow down in a no wake zone, and that's what made him think it would be a good idea to do some donuts in the marina and moon some people. Apparently he lost control of the boat during one of his donut manuevers. I guess he managed to get up enough speed to get way up there, although there isn't a lot of room in that marina to get going that fast. But idiots have a way of defying the laws of physics and reason.

And surely he'll be the butt of many a joke!

As for not charging him 'cuz the cop didn't witness it, I thought by now all states would let a cop make an arrest at a DUI crash, or at least the cop could write a report and request charges through the prosecutor.

I wonder if the cop saw the cell phone video that they posted in the article. Seems to me that combined with him being extremely intoxicated when the officer arrived would be enough to bust him for BUI. I wonder how this will affect his employment situation. The news site posted info about his employer, so you know they are going to know about it.

Was on Cumberland last week. I could see pretty good when the moons out. Hammer down. :)

I bet his boat has a real pissy smell to it when he gets it back. Just Sayin'.

That's the damn truth.

Where did this happen? Articles not working for me.

I'm assuming around Louisville, the news site the story used to be on was a Louisville station.

Wonder why the story was taken down?

Yes, it was near Captain's Quarters in Louisville - a popular riverside watering hole and restaurant. I guess this guy had some friends in high places to get the story taken down. Probably explains why he wasn't busted for more serious charges. Not his first brush with DUI. Wish I had posted the text of the article now, just so his idiocy could remain exposed on the web. I'm sure he will provide us with some more fodder in the near future - hopefully he won't take out an innocent bystander next time.
